I have a new favorite muffin recipe! As you know, I love to bake and have many delicious muffin and quick bread recipes already, but these ones have got to be the best yet! If you are a fan of delicious, nutritious muffins, then this one is for you!

Blackberry Hemp Muffins

Hemp seeds are claimed to be the most perfect food for man. They are easily digestible and a great source of vegan protein. They also contain more of the essential amino acids than milk or meat and contain about seven times more omega-3 fatty acids than fish. I love to use hemp seeds in many of my recipes, but these muffins are my favorite way to use them.

Make the buttermilk by placing the lemon juice or apple cider vinegar in a 1 cup measuring cup and filling the rest of the measuring cup with unsweetened almond milk. Allow the milk to sit a few minutes to curdle.

Whisk together the buttermilk, maple syrup, sunflower oil, applesauce and vanilla extract in a small mixing bowl.

Add the wet ingredients to the medium mixing bowl with the dry ingredients and mix until almost combined, then add the blackberries and mix again until just combined, careful not to over mix the batter.

Spoon the muffin batter into the paper baking cups, filling them each 3/4 of the way full.

Bake for 18-20 minutes. Muffins are ready when a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

Variation: Use fresh blueberries or raspberries in place of blackberries for something different.

WELCOME!

My name is Tiffany. I am a stay-at-home, homeschooling mother to five. Three amazing girls (one a non-verbal girl with autism), a boy and our angel baby Rowen. I have a passion for vegan cooking and baking and love yoga. I am interested in living a life conscious of my thoughts and my actions and leaving as light a footprint as I can on our beautiful planet. This is my space to share and embrace my spirit and reflect upon my life with joy and gratitude. I also love to share the yummy vegan recipes that I come up with for my family. Even though our diet changed from 100% vegan as a family in 2015, I still follow a mostly vegan diet myself. If you can take anything from this space of mine to better your life or the lives of others then I am truly grateful.
Thanks for stopping by and don't be afraid to connect! I read and appreciate each one of your lovely comments.
